Is jogging bad for lower back ache?

Answer 1

Yes. Jogging puts quite a pounding on your entire body... try switching to a treadmill. Swimming is the best choice for low impact exercising.

Answer 2

It can be bad for your lower back and many other joints.

It is usually contributed to three areas:

1. Type of surface -- Pavement and concrete are the two worst surfaces to run on. Grass or dirt are much better

2. Shoes -- consult some magazines and your local sporting goods shop (try to find a local shop, many big box stores will hire anyone who will accept min. wage, local shops tend to do their homework on which products are the best, and will go the extra mile to earn your business.)

3. Technique -- Many of use, just put our bodies in bad position while running. Once again Jogging magazines may be your best bet in improving and placing yourself into proper positioning.

Good Luck
